Advice on what to do with rental while waiting for window replace

Nicholas Jackson
Posted

I am having an issue where I just ordered new windows and was told the windows may not arrive for 16-20 weeks. A couple of the windows are pretty damaged or stuck in a certain position. I would love some advice on things I could do in the meantime in order to cover them up or do a quick fix as I would like to put a renter in the unit as soon as possible, or should I just wait until the windows have been replaced. Thanks for the advice.

Just a word of caution. If the bedroom windows are boarded up that’s a building code violation when it’s occupied. I would try to fix the bedroom windows enough to get them to function so you don’t run into any problems. One other solution would be to buy cheap replacement windows for the bedrooms until your custom ones arrive.

Best of Luck.
